About Kirsten

I'm a product leader with 12+ years of experience taking ambiguous, high-stakes problems and turning them into products that ship, scale, and hold up under real-world pressure.

My path started in hands-on technical consulting for education platforms, moved through product leadership on customer-facing digital products, and has spent the last decade-plus building data-driven, AI-informed decisioning products in one of the most regulated corners of financial services including fraud, risk, and compliance.

What ties it together: I like complex problems where the data is incomplete, the stakes are real, and the path from idea to scale isn't obvious yet. I build the business case, bring the right people along, and stay accountable for the outcome, not just the roadmap.

I'm based in Northern Virginia and open to remote or hybrid roles.
